Retama Park will conduct a number of training races for 2009 beginning
on Monday, February 2nd. These training races will cost $50.00 for all
horses, and the training race fees must be paid prior to running. Following
are important notes regarding the training races and the schedule:

Entries for training races will be taken starting Fridays at 8:00
a.m. and closing at 12:00 p.m. or when the total number of entries reaches
55 - first come, first serve. Overnights will be available shortly after
entries have closed.

Entries will be limited to 55 Quarter Horses, two-year-olds preferred.
Entries for maiden three-year-olds and upward will be taken in the event
there are not enough two-year-old entries. No Thoroughbreds!

Each trainer is allowed to enter four (4) horses and a few alternates
in the event the races do not fill with single entries.

Horses that have run in a training race one week are least preferred
to run the following week.

Post Time for first race each training race day is approximately 11:30
a.m.

A copy of the foal certificate is required to be on file in the Racing
Office as papers will be used in paddock identification. This is the
trainer's responsibility prior to entries, and your horse will NOT run
without papers on file.

All personnel are required to have a current Texas Racing Commission
license. No one will be allowed on the grounds without one. NOTE: You
will not be able to obtain a license on the day of training races as
the Racing Commission office is closed on Mondays.

Trainers are not allowed to bring additional horses to work in the
morning prior to training races as there is no additional room in the
receiving barn. NO horses in training races will be in the barn area
except in the receiving barn.

All horses entering the grounds must have an ORIGINAL health certificate
and CURRENT Coggins upon their arrival or they will not be permitted
on the grounds.

Obtaining a header, rider and pony person and their fees are the responsibility
of the trainer.

Head your own in the starting gate - only licensed trainers, assistant
trainers, or assistant starters are allowed to head horses in the starting
gate, and safety helmets are required..
